Alpaca Trading API integration for Model Context Protocol (MCP)
AuraStream is installed from its publisher's own source and answers where it runs, so this marketplace is not in the path of a single call. There is no address here to send one to, and a panel that pretended otherwise would be showing you an answer we made up. Install it and call it from your own client — the Installation tab has the entry for each one.
What it does
AuraStream is a historical data API for quants. This server lets Claude, ChatGPT and other MCP clients pull data from 46 sources through one tool, so you can ask for the data in plain words instead of writing the requests.
Market data: OHLCV bars from Binance, Bybit, Kraken, Hyperliquid and other crypto exchanges, Yahoo Finance, and your own Oanda, Alpaca or Polygon account, plus funding rates, trades and order books where the source has them.
Data that is hard to find elsewhere: EU net short positions with the holder's name (France, Netherlands, Spain), every USDA WASDE report since 2010, FRED with every revision, SEC insider trades, 13F holdings and fails-to-deliver, CFTC Commitments of Traders, and trade, weather and travel data.
Try: "How have hedge funds positioned in gold futures since 2020?" or "Who is short Ubisoft, and by how much?"
All data is historical, not real-time. The free plan includes 500 calls a month with no credit card: get a key at aurastream.unbiased-alpha.com/sign-up
Quickstart
# 1 — add it to Claude Code
claude mcp add --scope user --env 'AURASTREAM_API_KEY=${AURASTREAM_API_KEY}' --transport stdio aurastream-mcp '--' uvx aurastream-mcp
# 2 — ask your agent for something these tools do
# list_sources, get_timeseries, get_latest
It needs AURASTREAM_API_KEY: this reads it from your environment, so export it first.
AuraStream costs nothing on mcprush: there is no plan to choose here, no cap to set and nothing mcprush can bill you for.
Where are you running it?
Every route below installs the same thing and ends at the same approval screen. This one runs on your machine: your client starts AuraStream as a process under your own user, with your files and your network, so the tool surface below is what it can do to your computer rather than to a server somewhere else. Its scan result is on the Security tab — read the surface before you approve it.
This is a public server: you run it yourself and this marketplace is not in the path. You need uv (docs.astral.sh/uv): uvx comes with it. Claude Code registers it in one command; --scope user makes it available in every project. Claude Code reads AURASTREAM_API_KEY (Your AuraStream API key. A free plan (500 calls/month, no card) is at https://aurastream.unbiased-alpha.com) from your environment each time it starts the server, so the value stays out of its config: export it in your shell profile (macOS, Linux), or run setx AURASTREAM_API_KEY … and open a new terminal (Windows). The '--' is in quotes so that PowerShell passes it on.
claude mcp add --scope user --env 'AURASTREAM_API_KEY=${AURASTREAM_API_KEY}' --transport stdio aurastream-mcp '--' uvx aurastream-mcpReconnect, or start a new session, and the tools appear in the model’s tool list.
It reaches a system of yours, so it needs your own credential rather than the publisher’s: AURASTREAM_API_KEY — Your AuraStream API key. A free plan (500 calls/month, no card) is at https://aurastream.unbiased-alpha.com. You set it in your own client’s config, on your machine — this marketplace never holds it.
One config entry your client uses to start the process locally. A local server runs with your file system and your network, which is why it is priced without metering.
3 tools, with what each one reads, writes and reaches shown before you agree — the same list on every route above. Read the tool surface.
Tool surface
What the model actually sees. Descriptions are diffed on every release — see version history.
Read from its source code. A server that builds its tool list when it starts can list more tools than this.
List the AuraStream data sources: what each covers, ticker format, intervals, supported dtypes, optional source-specific parameters, the fields returned when they are not OHLCV, and whether provider credentials are needed and configured. Free to call (does not use the API allowance).
Takes no parameters.
Fetch historical data from AuraStream and return it as a CSV table per ticker (timestamp,Open,High,Low,Close,Volume for market bars; source-specific fields otherwise, see list_sources). Long results are cut to the most recent max_rows rows per ticker, with the total row count noted. Each call uses…

- Every tool, no call limit
- No card, and mcprush charges nothing for it
- Source published under MIT
- Runs on your machine — nothing of it reaches our gateway
- Nothing to cap, because mcprush bills nothing
What counts against your monthly calls
| Tool | Unit | Calls used | Out of the allowance |
|---|
Nothing here is billable: mcprush charges nothing to install AuraStream or to call it, at any volume.
Two independent axes, because powerful and malicious are different questions. The grade is threat only. The capability level is blast radius, and it is never a penalty on the grade — it is priced as one subtract-only term in the score, where you can see it.
| Term | Level | What it prices | Points |
|---|---|---|---|
| capability-exposure | minimal | capability blast radius (minimal) — client exposure if the model is manipulated | −0 |
| verification-discount | source | publisher verification (provenance) — cryptographic build provenance ties the artifact to its source | −0 |
| coverage-honesty | source | inspection depth (source) — how much of the target the scan could see | −0 |
What the scan could actually read
A grade is only as meaningful as its coverage, so the scanner publishes its own depth before it publishes its result.
Tools were statically extracted from the published source (3 recovered), not enumerated from a running server. Tool-poisoning, Unicode-smuggling, capability and toxic-flow analysis ran on this inferred surface, but a mis-parsed registration could be missed or mis-attributed, so tool-derived findings are capped below “confirmed”. To grade the real runtime surface, scan the running server: --command "npx -y <package>".
Capability — what it could do if the model were manipulated
Tags derived from each tool’s schema and the implementation, not from what the tool calls itself. minimal is the level these add up to.
| Tool | Capability tags | Why the tag was assigned |
|---|---|---|
| list_sources | no tags | |
| get_timeseries | untrusted-input | untrusted-input: keyword "fetch" |
| get_latest | no tags |
Toxic-flow graph
The lethal trifecta, checked as a graph rather than as a checklist: untrusted input, a sensitive source and an external sink have to meet before there is a path worth worrying about.
The public result for this release does not print the flow graph, so there is nothing to show here. That is not the same as "no paths were found": what the scan did read is above, under coverage.
Supply chain and provenance
This is the first scan of this surface here, so there is nothing yet to compare it against.
Every result on this tab comes from one deterministic pass over the published package — offline, rule by rule, and auditable line by line above. Same methodology version, same bytes, same score.
Release history
Always latest — the install command names no version, so it installs the newest release when it runs; the current release on file is 0.1.7. Pin a release below and the command asks for exactly that one.
No release note was published with this version.
One review per account, from a signed-in account that does not publish this listing. Nothing else is asked — you can say what you think before you install it. Publishers can reply once per review, and a review can be edited or deleted by whoever wrote it.
Any signed-in account that does not publish AuraStream can review it, once — before installing it or after. A review from an account that has installed it is marked as one.
Nobody has reviewed this listing. The rating on the card is the mean of the reviews written here and nothing else, so there is no rating until somebody writes the first — which takes a signed-in account that does not publish it, and nothing else.
